      P.S. this is a co-ed pond with koi ordinaire. in order to institute birth control, a baby small-mouth bass is coming tomorrow. just one. a year ago, i couldn't have done it, but it is too hard to home muttafry and the inn is full.

      putting link to new pond thread here.

      Hi, Phil ~
      I had a life-long dream to live in a rural place with cows nearby. i started here at Broccoli Hall with 1.5 bulldozed acres and a shabby old house -- when i was 38 yrs old.

      fifteen years later, a neighbor sold me 3.5 contiguous acres of hayfield. between the fish and the garden, i'm pretty much using it all!

      here's a link to the threadof the newest pond, just dug in april.

      Eric, i think you asked about the color of the water, altho i can't find your question here? the reddish purple color is potassium permanganate. I used it after i took the fish out of the pond so that i could kill pathogens in the water without taking a chance on hurting the fish, although many people with more expertise than i do treat their fish and water with p.p. My pond had been overcrowded and dirty for a long time, so this cleansing was overdue. now, after three weeks in an intex pool, the fish are back in the pond.

      Today, we imported a six-inch long small mouth bass who will be in charge of birth control in the pond. His name is Bruce.

      Looks really cool. Wish I had that kind of space. Some of your fish look awesome.
